Plaintiffs getting ready for their class action against members of the HDI and two corporations formed to transfer money between the HDI and developers in land transactions. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE

Class action suit still in effect says Monture By Jim Windle

OHSWEKEN – With lawsuits and other legal bantering flying around Six Nations about the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI) and its finances, Six Nations Bill Monture and Wilfred Davie recently launched a class action against Aaron Detlor, Hazel Hill, Brian Doolittle and Elvera Garlow, board members

of the HDI or its numbered corporate entities. “Months ago, a lot of people in the community wanted to know about what kind of deals HDI had made with developers or proponents,” says Monture who along with Davie are members of the Men’s Fire. “We wanted to know who was on payroll, what they were being paid and for doing what.” They are also very con-

cerned about the longrange ramifications of forming two corporations to handle the finances for the HDI. There is case law, which stirs their concern further. In one such case it was stated, “A corporation is not an Indian even if wholly owned by Indians and land held under this section by a corporation may be taxed under provincial law.” Regarding what is and is not an Indian, the law also states; “A corporation wholly owned by registered Indians is not an Indian within the meaning of the Act.” “We heard that the HDI and its corporations were picking their own board members and that’s just not right,” says Monture. “They should have gone

to the community and asked the community if they wanted to be a part of it.” Looking back on how HDI was supposed to be, the people in charge were only to be there temporarily. That’s why Hill has been, until recently, called the interim director of the HDI. They were to go to the community and invite people to come and apply for those roles to ensure the board was as broad based as possible to represent a broader cross-section of the community. That never happened despite being challenged to do so many times. “People have gone to the HDI seeking answers and documents, which they have been denied,”

says Monture. “They talk about being transparent but are anything but.” According to Monture their lawyer has even asked for a meeting to discuss the matter further with a mediator present, before it goes to court, but there has been no response from any of the defendants. “Some people have said this action is in response to Aaron Detlor’s legal action against me and Lester (Green), but it’s not,” says Monture. Detlor has taken Monture and Lester Green to court on allegations of assault, which occurred when Detlor was physically removed from his office by members of the Men’s Fire. This case is still making its way through the system.

Why do they feel this class action measure necessary? Monture believes that if the HDI won’t open itself to the community on its own, the lawsuit will force them to reveal it in Canadian court. “If he want’s to talk I’m open to that,” says Monture. “But I will take it to the nines if I have to.” The action being put forward by the Monture and Davie is a class action, which anyone can join. If the action is successful, the men insist there will be no money changing hands, but it will force open the files the HDI has been keeping closed. “It’s not about the money,” insists Monture. “It’s about stopping what they are doing down there.”

Tragically Hip singer honours residential school victims By Jim Windle Gord Downie, enigmatic front-man for Canadian super group the Tragically Hip announced last week his new album is dedicated to Chanie Wenjack, a 12-year-old indigenous boy who escaped from a residential school only to be killed by a train as he followed the tracks to where he hoped was home, 400 miles away. The album, Secret Path along with a novel and film are set for an October Release. All proceeds from the project will support the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation at the University of Manitoba. Downie writes in a statement released last week: "Mike Downie introduced me to Chanie Wenjack; he gave me the story from Ian Adam’s Macleans magazine story dated back in February 6, 1987, ‘The Lonely Death of Charlie Wenjack.’ Chanie was a young boy who died October 22, 1966, walking the railroad tracks, trying to escape from Cecilia Jeffery Indian Residential School to walk home. He didn’t know that Chanie’s home was 400 miles away. He didn’t know where it was, nor how to find it, but, like so many kids — more than anyone will be able to imagine — he tried. I never knew Chanie, the child his teachers misnamed Charlie, but I will always love him. Chanie haunts me. His story is Canada’s history. This is about Canada. We are not the country we thought we were. History will be rewritten. We are all accountable, but this begins in the late

Gord Downie is about to release a new solo album he is dedicating to residential school victim, 12-year-old Chanie Wenjack. The project also includes an animated film and book all called The Secret Path. SUBMITTED PHOTO 1800s and goes to 1996. “white” Canada knew — on somebody’s purpose — nothing about this. We weren’t taught it: it was hardly ever mentioned. All of those governments and all of those churches, for all of those years, misused themselves. They hurt many children. They broke up many families. They erased entire communities. It will take seven generations to fix this. Seven. Seven is not arbitrary. This is far from over. Things up north have never been harder. Canada is not Canada. We are not the country we think we are. I am trying in a small way to help spread what Murray Sinclair said, “This is not an aboriginal problem. This is a Canadian problem. Because at the same time that aboriginal people were being demeaned in the schools and their culture and language were being taken away from them and they were being told

that they were inferior, they were pagans, that they were heathens and savages and that they were unworthy of being respected – that very

same message was being given to non-aboriginal children in the public schools as well. They seem to know that history includes them.

I have always wondered why, even as a kid, I never thought of Canada as a country – It’s not a popular thought; you keep it to yourself –

I never wrote of it as so. The next hundred years are going to be painful as we come to know Chanie Wenjack thousands like him – as we find out about ourselves, about all of us – but only when we do can we truly call ourselves, “Canada”." The stories Gord’s poems tell were fleshed into the 10 songs of Secret Path with producers Kevin Drew and Dave Hamelin. Recording took place over two sessions at the Bathouse in Bath, Ontario, November and December 2013. The music features Downie on vocals and guitars, with Drew and Hamelin playing all other instruments, except guest contributions by Charles Spearin (bass), Ohad Benchetrit (lap steel/ guitar), Kevin Hearn (piano), and Dave “Billy Ray” Koster (drums).

Jiimaan collective harvests mahnoomin to teach tradition and uphold sovereignty By Tim Reynolds PIGEON LAKE – For the past two weeks the Jiimaan collective has been learning hands on about traditional Anishinabe harvesting of mahnoowin, a.k.a. wild rice, at the Gamiing Nature Centre. Gamiing stands for “at the shore” and the centre is located on pigeon lake just south of Bobcaygeon, Ont. It is a non-profit charitable organization that dedicates itself to promoting the importance of living in balance with the needs of nature and the needs of humans. The harvesting teachings had participants that weren’t exclusively Anishinabe, but came from many diverse ethnic backgrounds. The Jiimaan collective came from the deliberations of groups of elders who discussed for a day and half eventually deciding that Anishinabe have to be Anishinabe on the land and in the waters again. In that way she

[Mother Earth] will know we care again so she will respond. Founding Anishinabe member Becky Big Canoe named the collective after her distant relative going seven generations back refused to let the colonials give him an English name. Her relatives name was Jiimaan. “Harvesting the rice gets us on the waters because the waterways used to be our highways not so long ago,” said Big Canoe. “We needed to come up with a new vehicle towards revitalization efforts right across and I see these collectives as the way to do it. There are seven collectives across this part of the working this way and within them we want to revive our clan governance structures. Everyone will know their responsibilities.” James Whetung of the Anishinabek nation was there to teach people how to harvest the rice. He has been doing it for close to 35 years. Whetung said that he does it to get rid of ignorance and racism.

The Jiimaan collective has spent the last two weeks learning about traditional harvesting of mahnoowin, or, wild rice. The collective also made the sign seen in the photo, to show support for those protesting the development of a pipeline in Standing Rock, North Dakota. PHOTO BY TIM REYNOLDS Also to try to rehabilitate our seed and food sovereignty. “[To] help re-establish good health amongst our people,” said Whetung. “We are dependent on foods that are so high in sugar and carbohydrates that there is not one family on my reserve that hasn’t been effected by diabetes by going blind; affecting their kidneys or losing fingers, their toes,

teeth and lives. Making it available to those that can’t get it.” The harvesting began with various speakers pointing out that the harvesting area is under the Williams treaty and the nations that represent that treaty. The group then did ceremony and an offering of tobacco ties made by the group was sent out to the rice plants via canoe to give

thanks and blessings for the mahnoowin. The harvesters paddle out with two sticks to tap the rice plants dropping the rice grains into the canoe and leaving the plants undamaged. The next phase is to parch the rice in a large cauldron parching the grains over a wood fire until ready. The next step is to have clean moccasins worn by the dancers to dance on

top of the rice in another cauldron to break up the husks. The final step is to winnow the rice which means to lift the rice by hand filtering the chafe into the wind. It was agreed by the entire collective that the harvest was a great success and look forward to next year’s harvest.

Can Six Nations extend a hand to stop oil pipelines? Letters An Editorial by Jonathan and Nahnda Garlow In Kahonwe worldview we say the human race has been put in place to protect the earth and all of creation. To the Ongwehonwe there is nothing that justifies the risk oil damage could potentially do to the precious waterways and protected wetlands. We, the Haudenosaunee, recognize our interconnected relationship to the waterways of Turtle Island — and we cannot allow the life of our rivers and lakes to be put at risk without putting ourselves at risk. Did you know a 25-year-old Enbridge pipeline crosses underneath our Grand River multiple times? And did you know an oil pipeline runs just east of Six Nations near Plank Road? Not many people do it seems. And that is frightening. Who permitted it to go through our territories in days past? And what or how were the Six Nations compensated for that? This should be common knowledge among all families at Six Nations, no matter what faction or political group you align your mind with. Granted the decision would have been made before to the new “free, prior and informed consent” age of Trudeau and the UNDRIP — but the point is, Enbridge is here. Segments of Enbridge’s pipeline systems that cross our territory, also known as

Lines 9,10 and 11, are connected to a greater pipeline system that now includes the Dakota Access Pipeline. And will include the proposed Energy East pipeline our cousins in Kahnawake and Kahnesatake are standing up against as well. It now appears we’ve been asleep at the wheel over here in the “Big Six” when it comes to pipelines. It’s bad enough that the previous political landscape didn’t require corporations to inform or consult with First Nations about where they were going to put these things. But did you know that our very own local political representatives have been presently engaged in discussions with Enbridge? Although both the SNEC and HDI sent official statements denouncing the Dakota Access Pipeline, documents posted publicly via the National Energy Board indicate both have been engaged in serious talks on behalf of the people of Six Nations and, we assume, are receiving some form of compensation for issuing “consent” of some form. Enbridge told the NEB, “HDI emailed Enbridge a signed archaeology agreement indicating interest in continued dialogue regarding environmental participation on the project,” on February 8th, 2016. Even worse is a note regarding Enbridge proceedings with our Six Nations Elected Council,

April 8, 2016 ”In person meeting scheduled to discuss draft Line 10 capacity funding agreement and long-term relationship.” Gigantic corporations like Energy Transfer Partners, Enbridge, Kinder Morgan and TransCanada pipelines are all intertwined like snakes and supporting one, for any reason at all, is like supporting them all. When we stand hand in hand with our cousins in Standing Rock, Kanesatake, Sarnia, or anywhere else along the path of these “black snakes” it would be nice to be able offer that hand in spirit and truth, knowing our community has not compromised and taken money from Enbridge for anything. Not one red cent. It would be nice if our hands were clean. But when we extend our hand of support to our cousins — are we armed with weaponry in the form of consent? Signed engagement agreements that have whittled away sovereignty letter by letter until corporate bullying and dangling carrots lure us from our Creator given responsibility? Could it be possible we are committing national acts of lateral violence against other indigenous communities if we commit one signature to pipelines. Because although U.S. President Barack

Obama made the call to halt DAPL construction on federal lands until the process can be given a full review, as of Tuesday a helicopter and 100 state officers were sent into Standing Rock armed with loaded assault rifles, aimed them at land defenders and arrested journalists who were documenting the incident. Journalists for Unicorn Riot were told by land defenders during those arrests officers were pointing those loaded guns straight at them. Unicorn Riot journalists also stated local police

posted pro-pipeline memes to their official social media accounts. Why is there increasing security surrounding construction of the DAPL? To that effect, why hasn’t the construction stopped? And we have to ask ourselves — what part has our “free, prior and informed consent” played in building this interconnected system of waterways, corporations and pipelines?

Remembering Red Hat She was of small stature, but was a huge presence of spirit. At Kanonhstaton, she was over the stove cooking a meal for many of those people from Six Nations or for supporters from other nations and Canadian allies helping to defend the land. She asked me if I was a Christian because she was a pentecostal. I answered jokingly "I'm a professional sinner that's beyond saving.” With her trademark wit she replied "I can remedy that you just have to believe.” That was almost 11 years ago and I still haven't forgotten that moment in life. It showed her high level of intelligence, but more so that powerful determination to improve her people’s and other nations lives. A determination that placed herself in harm’s way at construction sites placing herself, at times, in front of bulldozers and alike. She was a real warrior and to me she was "Red Hat”.

Notification after the fact is the new Public Consultation By Doug Whitlow, BA

Sometime ago, the Canadian government declared that all Aboriginal communities/First Nations had to be properly consulted prior to any development occurring on or near the First Nation. This new directive sent every Aboriginal community in the country into a frenzy as each First Nation began to develope its own Consultation and Accommodation Program. The Elected Council from the Six Nations of the Grand River very quickly jumped on the band wagon and set up a team from the Lands and Resources Department to begin designing their very own consultation package which this team managed to accomplish rather quickly. Word of this new development spread quickly and very soon every developer from near and far was beating a path to the Grand River community seeking per-

mission to do build one thing or another from the new Consultation and Accommodation Program or (CAP) team as this group of semi-qualified people is now known. With the new CAP Team firmly in place in the Grand River community, it wasn't long before a new five person group (HDI) claiming to represent the (defacto government) of the old (Iroquois Confederacy Chiefs Council) also came on the development scene claiming to represent the people of the Six Nations Reserve. The very quick and unexpected rise of the HDI onto the development scene threw the development community into a dither as no one knew who to contact at the Grand River Reserve as new projects began sprouting up and down the Haldimand Tract. Here in 2016, a mere eight years from the birth of these two teams, it appears that each of the

two local groups continue to go about their respective duties of supposedly working for the betterment of all Iroquois people here in the Grand River Valley; it has also become quite clear that the Six Nations Elected Council has itself adopted a new policy of (Notification after the Fact) from their local development based opponent. One has only to look at the recent Samsung Wind Power Project to see that the Samsung Deal had been completely worked out by the parties concerned and approved before the people of Six Nations was asked whether or not they approved of the project. This same tactic of (Notification after the Fact) was used just recently by the CAP Team and the SAO as these two bodies worked with Avalon Construction to develop the large McClung Road Housing Development in North Caledonia. There again, the project

was designed by Avalon and approved by CAP and the SAO well before the community was asked for their individual opinions. The latest wrinkle in this new (Notification after the Fact) approach to local development projects is the new Tim Horton`s Sugar Factory which will open soon here in our Diabetic Laden community. In just a few weeks anyone suffering from Diabetes and other diseases will be able to walk to the new Sugar Factory to satisfy their desire for any one of the many sugar laden delicacies being sold in the new store. Anyone with some knowledge of how construction projects are designed and built should be able to see that the Tim Horton`s Project must have been in the works for quite some time as the project has been very neatly incorporated into the Street Widening and Storm Sewer Project which has been interrupting our daily

lives here in Ohsweken all summer. Now; there is no doubt that the new street widening project was necessary along with the new sewers which is all well and good. However; many of us who live and work in the village never heard about the Tim Horton`s until construction began even though, we can be sure that someone must have placed an ad in some unknown newspaper somewhere in the province to make some people aware of the new sugar factory being planned for the village. Now; all of us who have had to put up with the endless traffic problems all summer now realize that these traffic problems will seem like child,s play once Tim Horton`s is open for business and we have cars and trucks destroying our peace and quiet on a continual basis all year long. Of course; there will be those who will say the new store

will create new local employment positions for our youth which, it will no doubt do. However; on the other hand, no one is saying anything about the one or more community or non-community members who own the store and will get incredibly richer from the project while remaining safely well away from all the traffic problems we local people will have to deal with. And so; that is that, as we the people must learn to adjust to the new norm of (Notification after the Fact) which has become the (new norm in local politics). But; there is something we can do about this new tradition as this just happens to be an Election Year here on the Rez and I would urge everyone to get out and run for office or at least get out and vote an entirely new Chief and Council into office so we can put an end to (Notification after fact).

the understanding of “Conscious Intent” that is a parallel and equally important element of growth and development. These two elements are not being positioned as an “either/ or” proposition but rather as two (and possibly more) complimentary dynamics that are demonstrated in our philosophies and world-view starting with our Creation Stories. There are many variations on the Beginning but the Creation Stories I’ve heard all have the concept of Conscious Intent woven into them in the form of the Conscious Intent of the Creative Powers. As these Teachings evolve and expand the concept of Conscious Discipline emerges. The Creative Powers are expressed as dualities or “twins”. None is more important than the others and each has a vital and important contribution to make. These dualities consist of Male/Female, Positive/Negative, Seen/Unseen, Known/Unknown, Mind/Heart, Physical/ Spirit, and Light/Dark.

They are often described as an Energy Entity — an Entity whose existence is manifested through all of them. At some point this Entity comes to understand Loneliness, that it is the only thing in the whole of the Universe. In arriving at that understanding it also begins to understand the twin is Relations and having relations forms its Conscious Intent to bring about a fundamental change in the Universe. In one version the Teaching describes how its Male element joins with its Mind element to begin to initiate change. But before it can begin its Female element joins with the Heart element to say that Male/ Thought cannot travel alone but must be accompanied by Female/Heart or no change will occur. From this initial spark of consciousness all of the other elements also become involved in the process of initiating this great change. And so it is that as we look about we can see how all of them are contin-

uously present in our lives. In the 1977 Haudenosaunee position paper Spiritualism, the Highest Form of Political Consciousness: The Haudenosaunee Message to the Western World this understanding and belief is stated as follows: “Ours is a Way-of-Life. We believe that all living things are spiritual beings. Spirits can be expressed as energy forms manifested in matter. A blade of grass is an energy form manifested in matter — grass matter. The spirit of the grass is that unseen force which produces the species of grass, and it is manifested to us in the form of real grass.” Everything that exists in the Physical Realm is a direct expression of the Conscious Intent of the Creative Forces that there exists a place in the Universe where Humans can come into existence and have a good life. This also gives rise to another set of Twins — Uniformity/Diversity. Trees have a certain Uniformity of existence —

they have trunks, limbs and roots. And at the very same moment they express incredible Diversity. Again, one does not exist without the other. In the realm of Humans there is one major difference from all of the other Beings. And that is the kind of Mind we were given. Within it there exists what has come to be called “free will”. Of all of the Beings existing in the Physical Realm, humans are the only ones who can see and exercise options. And our history shows us this is why Conscious Discipline had to come into existence to counter act Unconscious Discipline. Our growth and evolution has shown that we are very capable of getting ourselves into a lot of trouble by not exercising Conscious Discipline. We live within realms of what can be called “laws” – the Laws of Creation, and the Laws of the Land. The Laws of Creation could also be seen as the Laws of Physics. They’re very similar but they also have differences.

The Laws of the Land are specific to the bio-region one is born into. While there are similarities differences arise because of the makeup of the bio-region – desert versus forest, arctic versus jungle, etc. Unconscious human behaviour triggered the need for the development of two additional sets of “laws” or “protocols”. These are expressed in the various bodies of laws humans have developed and they’re reinforced through ceremony and spiritual processes. Our Teachings tell us that at the moment of conception our Ancestors gather around and give us gifts to bring to the Physical Realm – we do not come here empty handed. We arrive here possessing potential and promise and it’s the responsibility of those who are here before us to provide the resources and access needed to empower and animate this potential. Another important principle in our Teachings

Decolonizing our lives with Conscious Intention By Mike Myers

I recently had a conversation with my brother about a workshop he attended focused on “Conscious Discipline” which is described as: “Conscious Discipline® is built on the premise of developing discipline within children rather than applying discipline to them. The Conscious Discipline process applies equally to parents, child care givers, educators, and patient caregivers.” His comment was that it was interesting that this was something “new” to non-Indigenous folks but actually deeply engrained in our Teachings and original systems of child growth and development. What ensued was a lively discussion of how these Teachings underline some very key and important Indigenous understandings of how not only individual, but societal and national development has occurred and can be the foundations of nation re-building once again. What we explored was

Northern communities spend more than half of income on food: Report The Canadian Press TORONTO — A new report suggests people living in remote northern Ontario communities spend more than half their income on food to meet basic nutritional needs. The report from Food Secure Canada looked at the cost of certain food items in three northern Ontario reserves — Moose Factory, Fort Albany and Attawapiskat — located in the Mushkegowuk territory, along the James Bay Coast. It found on-reserve households in Fort Albany must spend at least 50 per cent of their median monthly income to buy food for a basic nutritious diet. The report said a ``reasonable assumption'' suggests Attawapiskat and Moose Factory must do so as well. ``For households that live on fixed incomes, spending more than half of their monthly income on food leaves little for other basic needs and does not allow for unexpected monthly costs,'' the report said. ``When forced to choose, people pay for fixed expenses first, and food becomes a `flexible' element of the household budget, despite the centrality of food to ensuring

long-term health and well being.'' The report said such households often need to make choices about kind and amount of food they can buy, and opt for poor quality food that is filling and cheaper but less nutritious. The report also compares food prices in the northern communities to comparable purchases in southern Ontario. It says the average cost of a food basket for a family of four for a month in the northern community of Attawapiskat in June 2015 was $1,909, compared to $847 in Toronto. Food Secure Canada says that's despite the fact that Attawapiskat is serviced by the federal government's Nutrition North Canada program, intended to make healthy perishable food more affordable in northern communities. A food basket in Fort Albany was $1,831.76, and $1,639.42 in Moose Factory. Food Secure Canada called on federal and provincial governments to make access to nutritionally adequate and culturally appropriate food a basic human right in Canada. ``We are living hand to mouth,'' Gigi Veeraraghavan, a community health

worker and one of the report authors said in a release. ``The subsidy, as we experience it in Fort Albany, has not made it possible for the average family to eat well, let alone afford basic things like diapers and toilet paper.'' NDP MP Charlie Angus, whose riding includes the three reserves studied in the report, said the findings don't surprise him. ``We have families going hungry all the time in the north, people who can't afford to put basic food on the table,'' he said in an interview. ``We have in Canada a first world economy and we have a fourth world, and the fourth world is in the north, where children are not able to get fed. Where it's cheaper to feed your children pop and chips because you can't afford to give them nutritional vegetables and fruits.'' Angus added that the Nutrition North program is ``broken.'' ``We've heard the government say they're going to look at the program but tinkering with this program isn't sufficient. There is a serious food crisis affecting all the northern communities so we need to completely look at an overhaul of this system.''

Arrests of land defenders at Dakota Access Pipeline by heavily armed officers in riot gear By Nahnda Garlow STANDING ROCK SIOUX NATION, N.D. — Livestreamed video from the Dakota Access Pipeline Tuesday showed indigenous men and women being arrested by heavily armed law enforcement. Nearly 100 officers in riot gear from the local and state law enforcement detachments arrived at the construction site where land defenders attached themselves to bulldozers and diggers after they learned construction workers continued to install pipe in an area nearby the camps. Journalists for independent media source Unicorn Riot distributed the livestream video, showing that despite the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Department of the Interior and the U.S. Department of Justice’s decision to halt construction — pipeline was being installed underground as of Tuesday morning. Unicorn Riot’s journal-

ist stated in the video land defenders had loaded assault rifles aimed at them by police. “I’m unarmed!” shouted one land defender while being arrested. In the clip that man tells journalists at the scene loaded guns were pointed at him, calling the action “cowardly” on behalf of police. Sacred Stone Camp reported Tuesday night via their Facebook page 22 people were arrested by police and are being held at the Morton County jail. The arrests came on September 13th, a national day of action to oppose DAPL with events scheduled around the world. Journalists for Unicorn Riot also claimed state and local police forces shared pro-pipeline propaganda posters on their official social media accounts, increasing the spirit of tension and hostility. Police blocked road access to the area where arrests were being made and threatened to arrest journalists on site as well.

Over the weekend Morton County police issued an arrest warrant for one journalist, Amy Goodman, whose comprehensive coverage through Democracy Now! captured attack dogs being unleashed on land defenders by private security. An additional warrant was issued for Cody Hall, media spokesperson for Red Warrior Camp, just one of the established opposition camps at the pipeline. Hall was arrested by police while driving a vehicle on a road near one of the camps. Both Hall and Goodman have been arrested with Criminal Trespass. Lawyers for land defenders at Standing Rock issued a statement about the arrest warrants for media relations. “After Amy Goodman, anchor and reporter for Democracy Now!, reported from the sacred site of the Standing Rock Sioux where Dakota Access pipeline “security forces” were

caught on camera unleashing canines and mace against water protectors, including a pregnant woman and children, the State of North Dakota issued a warrant and a criminal complaint against her for criminal trespass, a Class B misdemeanour, carrying a maximum penalty of 30 days in jail and a $500 fine or both. “Mariel Nanasi, part of the legal team representing people at the encampment, stated “The State of North Dakota has begun to issue warrants and complaints against persons exercising their first and fourth amendment rights. Amy Goodman is being charged with criminal trespass because she was reporting and filming the destruction by the Dakota Access pipeline of the Sioux’s sacred sites and people’s response. When the security forces unleashed dogs and mace on unarmed civilians the Democracy Now! report went viral and was viewed by more than 4 million people

all over the world. “The State of North Dakota continues to escalate their harassment of people, including reporters, and to intimidate them from participating in peaceful protest and the defense of their land and water.” The Governor of North Dakota upped the stakes at the Dakota Access Pipeline demonstrations Thursday calling in the National Guard. Governor Jack Dalrymple called a press conference Thursday afternoon to make the announcement. A spokesperson for the National Guard confirmed approximately 100 armed guardsmen will be deployed to the opposition camps. The Governor said the request for the national guards presence is “in the interest of public safety.” Officials for the National Guard said up to 4100 Guardsmen were ready to be called into the demonstrations if needed. Federal officials for the

Department of the Army and Deparment of the Interior along with the Department of Justice issued a statement Friday they would not permit pipeline construction to proceed on federal land until a full review of the previous approval is done. The announcement was celebrated by Standing Rock officials, who received word Friday afternoon a US District Judge did not rule in the tribe’s favour for an injunction to stop construction. Tribal Chairman David Archambault said he was pleased tribes from the area were invited to negotiate with the federal government on further infrastructure projects. Demonstrators along the pipeline said given DAPL’s destruction of sacred sites revealed to them just one week ago, Standing Rock Sioux Tribe feels areas along the construction route may still be at risk, and have decided to remain on site.

Over 100 armed law enforcement officers in riot gear arrested 22 water defenders along the Dakota Access Pipeline construction route. Journalists were also targetted for arrest. Unicorn Riot, and independent media organization in the United States, livestreamed video of the arrests. Journalists from Democracy Now and media representatives for the Red Warrior Camp have also been targetted by police. PHOTOS LIVESTREAM. COM/UNICORNRIOT

Quest FOR THE

MANN CUP 2016

Pro-Fit Chiefs start Mann Cup play-offs with a win By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – The visiting Maple Ridge Burrards seemed to be suffering from a case of nerves in the first period. Ben McIntosh brought a good size contingent of Burrard fans who followed their team from British Columbia to their feet, at 3:24. But it only served as a cold slap in the face for the Chiefs who began to unravel the overwhelmed Burrards. Dan Dawson, Austin Staats with two, Randy Staats and Ryan Benesch piled on to give the Mann Cup hosts a 5-1 lead. The Burrards are not here by accident having eliminated last year’s Mann Cup winners in six games. By the 6:57 mark the Burrards carved deep into the Chiefs’ lead, only two goals behind. The Chiefs caught fire again late in the period to score four goals of their own and the Chiefs led 9-5. Maple Ridge carried the moniker of “The Burrard Street Bullies” with them when they arrived from B.C., and with the

score rapidly getting out of reach, they began to try to intimidate Six Nations into fights or some form of retaliation to uphold that image. If it was a game plan, it didn’t work. Although Chiefs players can handle themselves physically when called on to do so, they laughed and walked away while referees called the intimidator. The prolific Six Nations power play accounted for five goals while the Burrards went 0-4 in that department. Dan Dawson had a great game scoring three and assisting on five more. Ryan Benesch scored three and assisted on two while Randy Staats went 2-3. Also scoring for the Chiefs were: Austin Staats (2G,1A), Roger Vyse (1G,2A), Brier Jonathan (1G,1A), Ethan O’Conner (1G), and Paul Dawson (1G).

Return of Jamieson and Point makes the difference By Jim Windle

SIX NATIONS – According to Chiefs’ coach Rich Kilgour, the target heading into Game 3 of the Mann Cup Finals against the Maple Ridge Burrards was to take away the confidence the visitors from B.C. gained after winning Game 2 to even the best of seven series at a game apiece. To that end, the Chiefs unleashed their two of their not-so-secret weapons as Cody Jamieson and Craig Point returned to the Chiefs lineup for Game 3. Jamieson has appears to have completely adjusted to his new knee brace following an injury in the Lakers series and played his first game of the Mann Cup, Monday night. They both made their presence known almost immediately as they combined for five goals and four assists in the Chief’s 9-7 OT win. Jamieson scored first from Dan Dawson and Brier Jonathan at 2:17 bringing the local fans to their feet, but it wasn’t long before Burrards fans got their turn as Owen Barker responded from Zack Porter. Jamieson and Point connected on a Chiefs powerplay to end the first stanza with the Chiefs up 2-1. Goalie Frankie Scigliano was chosen as the Maple Ridge MVP of the game

Game #3 went to OT Monday night after Craig Point sent the game into extra time where the Chiefs scored two goals for the 9-7 final score to take a 2-1 series lead. PHOTO CHIEFS FACEBOOK PAGE and deserved the selection keeping the Burrards close enough to strike. Maple Ridge made it a new game at 4-4 with Ben McIntosh pulling the Burrards even again. Jamieson and Randy Staats then set up Vaughn Harris for the 5-4 goal but the Burrards battled back with two goals scored by Luke Gillespie and Connor Goodwin giving the Burrards their first lead of the game with 3:22 remaining in regulation time. Point combined with Jamieson and Randy Staats at 18:47 to send the game into extra 10-minute period. Austin Staats set the pace early at 26 seconds from Dan Dawson. Dillon

Ward made three game savers in the OT frame to keep the Burrards off the score-sheet while Jamieson put the icing on the cake from Dan Dawson and Austin Staats for the 9-7 win to take a 2-1 lead in games heading into Friday night’s Game 4 at the ILA at 8 p.m.

Sid Smith and the Chiefs defence have stood up well against the speedy and talented Maple Ridge attack and Ward has been playing play-off lacrosse. As mentioned earlier so has Scigliano and his defence to keep the score close in the last two outings.

The series continues this coming Friday and Saturday at the ILA at 8 p.m. Topping the Mann Cup score card in the first three games, is Dan Dawson. He has scored five goals, but has set up 14 so far. Leading the Burrards is Ben McIntosh with six goals and seven assists. Looking ahead to this weekend’s games, it’s still anybody’s guess what the series will look like after five games are played. The Burrards have not shown their “Burrard Street Bullies” persona given the potent Chiefs power play and PK’s, but when you play high pressure games against the same team, patience begins to wear thin and there are signs of stressed composure beginning to show. The pressure will be on the Burrards who will not want to go home empty handed, to pull out whatever they

have left to even the series again Friday night. But Monday was the first time Maple Ridge has seen the likes of Jamieson and Point and will now have to change their focus somewhat to deal with the power they have seen on the Chiefs bench so far, let alone the likes of Jamieson and Point. Point suffered a freak home accident and put a few stitches in his head from a fall. Although he is not suffering from a concussion, which is still keeping Johnny Powless out of the lineup, he was unable to comfortably fit a helmet on his head until Monday. For the Pro-Fit Chiefs, winning the Mann Cup three times in the past four years is the goal, which the Burrards are stubbornly standing in the way of.

After two it was tied By Jim Windle

SIX NATIONS – Tuesday’s pushback after Game 1 of the Mann Cup series was swift and decisive as the Maple Ridge Burrards rebounded from Friday’s 15-8 loss to the host Chiefs with a 13-9 win. While the Burrards seemed nervous and overwhelmed for most of the first game, the Chiefs looked in a similar condition in Game 2 as the Burrards turned it up a notch to even the series at one game apiece. The last time Maple Ridge won a national championship game was in 1977, but were full marks for Friday night’s win. The Chiefs on the other hand won the title in 2013-2014 but could not make the three-peat last season. Six Nations lost to the Peterborough Lakers in the league championships, but then lost to the Victoria Shamrocks for the 2015 championship. Meanwhile, out west, the Burrards stunned last year’s Cup winners

to qualify for this year’s Mann Cup. "Game 1 wasn't their best and we knew that," acknowledged Six Nations' forward Dan Dawson in the second intermission. "We knew they were going to push back, but I don't think we were ready for it." As sharp as Dillon Ward was in Game 1, Maple Ridge’s Frankie Scigliano was in Game 2. Game 3 is set for Monday, Sept 12th at 8 p.m. at the ILA in Six Nations. The Burrards built a 4-1 first period lead which grew into a 9-4 Six Nations deficit by the end of 40 minutes of play. Although there were flashes of brilliance on the part of the Chiefs, there was not the sustained energy seen the night before. Doug Jamieson went in in the third period to replace Ward to try and spark a comeback but it didn’t work as the Burrards kept coming in the third.

Cody Jamieson's return to the Pro-Fit Chiefs lineup seems to lift the entire team. He was out for the first three games of the OLA finals, but then Jamieson came back to help the Chiefs win the next four games to eliminate the Peterborough Lakers. He worked the Chiefs bench as a coach in Game #1 against Maple Ridge, which the Chiefs won. He was not on the floor or on the bench for Game #2 which they lost. He and Craig Point returned for Game #3 which the Chiefs won, and as of print deadline Tuesday night, Jamieson had scored two and assisted on one with the Chiefs hanging onto a narrow 6-5 lead.

Ontario Energy Board updates consultation Fire at hangar sends dark requirements for Energy East pipeline smoke for miles The Canadian Press

TORONTO — The Ontario Energy Board is issuing new guidelines to better define obligations to consult First Nations communities about ``hydrocarbon pipelines,'' just days after the National Energy Board opened hearings into the $15.7 billion Energy East project. The provincial board said the revisions to the Indigenous consultation section of the guidelines issued Thursday will ``streamline and clarify roles and obligations for the Ministry of Energy, the OEB and pipeline proponents.'' The Ministry of Energy will determine if a proposed project triggers a duty to consult, and if so, it will identify the Indigenous communities ``whose rights are potentially adversely affected ... and assess the

extent of the necessary consultation.'' The ministry will then delegate to the pipeline proponents the responsibility to conduct consultations, which would include meetings with Indigenous communities to assess the potential effects on their rights, keeping the Crown appraised of the rights asserted by First Nations and discussing options to accommodate those adversely affected. Pipeline proponents must file a report on the consultations and outline how any concerns raised were addressed or accommodated before a hearing, and any potentially affected First Nations communities will be invited to participate in the hearing. Premier Kathleen Wynne has said Ontario wants to see environmental issues and First Nations concerns ad-

Continued from page 7 is the idea that Choice is Sacred. This principle is fundamental self-determination. Exercising Choice is always contextual, such as: is this an individual choice, or is it a choice within a larger context such as family or community or nation? Developing our ability to make and exercise responsible, balanced choices are part and parcel of our development and growth. When our societies were complete each person had the opportunity to grow up immersed in all of this. From the time one could comprehend language they began receiving the Teachings. As one grew their life experiences and opportunities built on these lessons. The goal was the development of a competent and principled adult who could fulfill their promise and potential. The 21st Century presents us with a lot of challenges. One of my chiefs once told me, “Being an Indian is hard in this day and age. We face things our ancestors never had to.” I don’t believe there is a day that doesn’t go by where

we have to look deep into our Teachings, values, beliefs and principles for inspiration on how to address an issue. This is made difficult because there aren’t any of us who haven’t been impacted by the colonialism and oppression. All of us have experienced to some degree the disruption of our Indigenous Spirit and Being. One of the cornerstones of Haudenosaunee philosophy and belief is the concept of Kah:nii-guhnliiyo – the state of the Good Mind. This concept does not apply only to the mind but the overall state of the seven elements we identify as crucial to holistic healing and wellness – the Mind, Body, Heart, Spirit, Environment, Society and Fundamental Relations. Central to this concept are the Conscious Intentions and Conscious Disciplines we function within as we go about our life. While it is true that we face and deal with situations and conditions that our ancestors never conceived of, it is equally true that by exercising Conscious

dressed in the hearings on TransCanada Corp.'s 4,500 kilometre Energy East pipeline, which would carry Alberta crude oil to Saint John, N.B. Most of the Energy East project in Ontario would involve repurposing an existing natural gas pipeline with little new construction in the province. TransCanada officials assured environmentalists during the first three days of hearings in Saint John, which wrapped up Wednesday, that it would be able to have field personnel on site within three hours of a spill and equipment on site within six hours. The NEB plans additional hearings into Energy East in nine other cities including Montreal and Quebec City, before proceedings conclude in Kingston, Ont., in December.

By Nahnda Garlow HAGERSVILLE — A fire at a manufacturing plant west of Hagersville sent dark plumes of smoke into the air Sunday afternoon. The fire broke out at the Hagersville Business Park. Firefighters from Haldimand, Waterford and Simcoe stations were called in to battle the fire. Smoke could be seen as far away as Simcoe. Sources said shredded rubber was feeding the flames, accounting for the dark smoke.

Totem pole travels 2000 km to highlight international unity in fight against pipelines Last week, a totem pole weighing more than 1,360 kilograms and standing higher than seven metres was paraded through the streets of Winnipeg. The march serves to remind Canada and the fossil fuel industry that Indigenous nations are internationally united against fossil fuels. “This totem pole has been all about unifying indigenous peoples and grassroots struggles to defend our climate, to defend the sacredness of water, to take all of those brightly burning regional fires and make them into one big social movement,” said organizer Clayton Thomas-Muller. Carved by Jewell James of the Lummi Nation living in present day Washington, the totem pole is made from a single Western Red Cedar log, it features a bald eagle with a moon on its chest hovering above a wolf, a bear, four white buffalo and a medicine person. “We try to draw attention to things that are important to our Native people,” carver James said. “All of us have a common interest in protecting the quality of air, water and land.” James has carved more than 100 totem poles in his life. The Lummi Nation has gifted them to other active Indigenous nations across the continent. “We believe that if you have a spiritual gift, or any type of gift, that you share it with the people – that way you earn the right spiritually to retain that gift,” James said. “We dream in symbols and so we kind of hope that it awakens what we call the spiritual umbilical cord to the Earth.” The totem pole will come to rest in Sagkeeng First Nation, 120 kilo-

metres north east of Winnipeg. Here it will be erected in ceremony and it will stand in the direct pathway of TransCanada's proposed Energy East pipeline. The project seeks to transport oil from Alberta and Saskatchewan to refineries in Eastern Canada. “Everyone has a shared concern about water being contaminated by rupturing pipelines,” said Thomas-Muller. “For us, this is about peace, this is about unity, this is about invoking the sacred cosmology of our people to build one of the largest social movements in history.”

Robinson-Huron Treaty Gathering intends to teach youth about treaties

All kinds of people gathered on Whitefish Island, near Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, to commemorate the 166th anniversary of the signing of the Robinson-Huron treaty. Chiefs from across Anishnaabek territory, elders, historians, legal experts and

good old Anishnaabek themselves, came together to learn more about what the treaty represented at signing, and what it means now. The Rohinson-Huron treaty represents an area of 92,463 square kilometres, along the shores of Lake Superior and goes eastward towards Parry Sound, up to Kirkland Lake and south towards Sudbury. It was an agreement signed between the British Crown and Anishnaabek that were residing in the territory. The gathering intends to commemorate the rights of Anishnaabek people, like being able to freely cross the border, as set out in the Jay Treaty of 1794. This right was exercised the first morning of the gathering which seen a giant canoe with 22 paddlers and six individual kayaks and boats leave from the marina in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and successfully land across the St. Mary's river at Bellevue Park, in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. The paddlers were welcomed by the people. Chief Shingwaukonse of Garden River was historically noted as recognizing the imperfections of the agreement and said

that the treaty was unsatisfactory. Throughout the five year process in making the Robinson-Huron treaty, he was ignored. British representatives had their eye on the land, so they continually made difficult travels and battled sickness, like cholera, to make sure the British Crown had some formal, legal authority over the land. These days, the Robinson-Huron treaty has been relegated to that of monetary recompense for many leaders. In 2014, Chiefs from across the territories filed a Statement of Claim against Ontario and Canada, calling on the Crown to “honour it's promises and share resource revenues.” However, the Settler-Colonial promises made to Anishnaabek have been upheld with minimum standards

of honour and respect. The amount of resource extraction and industry that has profited from the use of Anishnaabek resources does not equal the $4 annuity provided to Anishnaabek. Despite the Statement of Claim being filed two years ago, there has not been a resolution. Chiefs say that they are anticipating discussions and negotiations. Last week, the Robinson-Huron treaty gathering provided an opportunity for many people, including youth, to learn about the shameful history and to meet to discuss ideas about what the future may look like. Chief Duke Pelletier of Wikwemikong Unceded Territory said that, “The Trudeau Liberal government has promised a renewed nation-to-nation relationship with Indig-

enous peoples based on recognition, rights, respect and a true partnership, particularly treaties. We have yet to see any action coming from that promise. We hope the promises made are not empty ones as we have seen with previous governments.” The gathering lasted for two days with recommendations for “resource revenue sharing” from Ontario Regional Chief Isadore Day and recommendations to implement MMIW inquiry findings from Assembly of First Nations Grand Chief Perry Bellegarde.

HI CLARA! Y

Attawapiskat rockers breaking down the barriers By Chezney Martin SIX NATIONS – Jukasa played host for Midnight Shine, a four-part Northern band that will be heading to Toronto and Ottawa to debut in both cities at the likes of the Toronto Urban Roots Festival from September 16 to 17, and the City Folk Festival on September 18. The band came from areas such as Moose Factory, Fort Albany and Attawapiskat and the two-

day stay at Jukasa Radio offered the artists time to record their new single, “Sister Love.” But, the bands very first single, Since You Been Gone, was featured on rock stations across Canada and also caught the attention of one of Canada’s best and most renowned booking agents; Ralph James. “I heard one track and thought, if these guys play live as well as they sound on the recording, I think we’re on to some-

thing here,” said James. “And they do.” James has since become one of Midnight Shine’s biggest supporters and industry champions, and signed the band to his roster at United Talent Agency. The band formed out of Singer and Song Writer Adrian Sutherland being invited to open for Trooper in 2011, under the condition that he opened with a band. Drummer George Gil-

lies said the band has been together for a full five years, “as of last month.” “It started with Adrian sending me a message through Facebook asking if I wanted to play drums for him, and in that conversation I suggested that we get Zach to play guitar and Stan to play bass,” said Gillies. In regards to what the meaning is behind their rock/folk music with hints that sound like popular Imagine Dragons-esque vocals, Sutherland explained that it's a question they have an answer for. “We get asked that question a lot, you know; 'what's the meaning behind the music,' what's

the message?'” said Sutherland. “We definitely try to break through and break down barriers as a First Nations band and we wanna go beyond the First Nations [category],” he said. “We want to cross over into main stream, that will allow us to take our message to a larger audience.” “We're trying to change perceptions of First Nations people in Canada,” he said. “'Cause we feel strongly that in order for us to continue to co-exist we need to understand each other more. I think that that's always been my goal, even as an individual.” Guitarist Zach Tomatuk agreed. “We don't wanna just

be known as a great aboriginal band, we wanna be known as a great band – period.” Tomatuk also added that the band has collaborated by utilizing each others strengths. “Adrian had a number of original songs and when we got together we just tried to add what we thought was appropriate and try to bring the song to the next level in terms of what we've learned with our instruments,” he said. In offering advice to other First Nations artists – the band agreed together that “you gotta take a chance.”

Meet the 1st First Nations team on Amazing Race Canada By Chezney Martin

Remember when Ashley Callingbull became the 1st First Nations woman to be crowned Mrs. Universe? Well, her triumphs aren't finished as she's partnered with her father, Joel Ground, to make the very 1st First Nations duo on Amazing Race Canada. With Callingbull coming from the Enoch Cree Nation, the two have reached the top three teams which could lead them to earning a whopping $250,000 if they achieve first place. But, it isn't just about the money for the two of them. "I feel like we're really breaking some barriers, and stereotypes … we're setting a good example and trying to be role models for all the First Nation youth that are watching the show," said Callingbull to CBC News. "To see a First Nation

team on the Amazing Race is ... going to empower a lot of First Nation people to do really well in their lives, and to go after their dreams.” Her participation in the race has also offered another platform for her to utilize her motivational speaking skills that do not disappoint. "Because of Amazing Race Canada I'm a different person now. I'm stronger than ever … I became a warrior woman in the race, and it's going to set a good example," she said. "Growing up and living through poverty and abuse … having my dad come into my life made it better.” But, in regards to their own preparation; she and her father hit the gym, and researched cities the show hasn't visited. Working as a team has seemed to bring the two closer, as his auto-mechanic skills and

preparation have also come in handy during the race. "I started running more and I was looking at different trivia about Canada, including a bit of map stuff, to try to get an advantage," said Ground. In being Callingbull's teammate, Ground also realized he won't be looked at just as her father anymore. "I won't be known just as Ashley's dad, it's going to be cool," said Ground. "I've always seen people come up to Ashley, and seen how their eyes light up when they talk to her, because she's such a role model," said Ground, who has now become a role model for First Nations fathers across the country as well.

The Season 4 Finale has been set for Tuesday, September 14, with only three teams including Ashley Callingbull and her father Joel Ground to fight to the finish line. SUBMITTED PHOTO

While the Mohawks had the experience, winning two silver medals and three bronze medals since 2000, the Miners had a hometown crowd of over 1,700 people cheering them on. A potent offence propelled them to victory, led by six point performances by Keegan Ball, who led all tournament scorers with an incredible 36 points (12 G, 24 A) in five games, and Richard Lachlan. Goaltender David Marrese did his part, backstopping the winner's with a tournament leading 4.80 GAA.
